I’m not a knitter nor do I crochet!
I’m a weaver and always on the look out for natural yarns in a wide variety of colours.
I stumbled across Hobbii and fell in love with the 8/8 cotton yarn - what a beautiful array of colours, it was hard to stick to my original palette. Fantastically quick service, I hardlyhard time to drool and be impatient!
Will definitely be back for more - just don’t tell my husband!

Just recently discovered Hobbii and fell in love! Decided to learn to crochet and came across this fantastic range of colours, I couldn't resist buying a rainbow palette to start a new blanket. Lovely to work with and a huge choice of colour.
Service was amazing, it seemed no sooner had I put in my order, it was despatched! I will definitely be coming back for more 😊

I have fallen in love with this cotton yarn. It is so easy to work with. Doesn't split like some of the other cotton yarns I have used and is an amazing price. I will definitely be buying it again. I'm also amazed at all the amazing colours it comes in. I found the exact colours I needed so I could use the same brand for my Crochet project.

This is so lovely to crochet with! I 'm new to crochet and I had been happily using acrylic yarn until I tried this. I absolutely love it! The yarn is smooth between your fingers as you use it and it looks absolutely lovely when made up. I've been using it for a set of crochet nativity figures and I am delighted with this yarn.
